Olympic View Golden Eagles! Picture Day is coming. Please see the details below and be sure to follow all directions.
Reopening Updates
Good Morning Olympic View Families and Friends:
The Reopening Playbook for Parents is now available in both Spanish and English. This document outlines our safe return to in-person instruction. Please review this “Parent Playbook” thoroughly by clicking here or copying and pasting this link into your web browser: https://indd.adobe.com/view/0476af62-e46a-44d1-9348-5fc8660c582b
As you may know, employees in the Chula Vista Elementary School District began to access the vaccine for COVID-19 on February 27. The goal is to vaccinate education staff as quickly as possible. The reduction in COVID-19 case rates goes hand in hand with increased vaccination rates. As part of the District’s agreement with Chula Vista Educators, the bargaining group that represents teachers, the District will reopen to in-person instruction starting with a “hybrid” instructional format—provided that all health and safety conditions are met. A key condition is that San Diego County return to the Red Tier as defined in the state’s tiered-level system. The County is currently in the most restrictive Purple Tier.
There is much optimism that a move to the Red Tier is on the horizon, based upon the downward trend in adjusted case rates. Once that occurs, parents and school staffs will be provided two-weeks’ notice before the start of the first day of in-person school to ensure adequate preparation.
To learn more about preparations in our schools, please click here to view our updated video on “Safety Starts at Home” (English): https://youtu.be/rnKyTBrY1p4 and “Ready for Students’ Return” (English): https://youtu.be/FTySt8UZipQ

Camera on Devices
Hi Golden Eagles,
Some of our student devices may experience camera issues while using MS Teams. Please note that this is a Microsoft issue and not a device issue. A device swap will not fix it. Our IT department is aware and working with Microsoft on a solution.
Here is a work around until this is fixed by microsoft:
Log into https://www.cvesd.org/
Click on Outlook- DO NOT click on Students. Sign in with student username and password
Then click on the app launcher in the top left corner and find the TEAMS app
Open teams in the Web Browser, not the app.
